Father’s Day is around the corner (Sunday, June 18), so I rounded up a list of Thomas’s favorite things in a neat and tidy Father’s Day Gift Guide to give you some ideas for your partner or dad.

Are the guys in your life difficult to shop for?
With Father’s Day around the corner, I started to think about what we’d gift to Thomas and the dads in our life. It got me thinking about Thomas’s favorite things that he uses regularly (often daily!). In the event you’re looking for ideas, here they are! Practical gifts with a sense of style plus the items men need, but rarely buy for themselves.
Father’s Day Gift Guide
The best golf clothes (sponsored)
Thomas is two things above all else: a golf fanatic and picky! Haha. This year he’s getting a handful of new clothes to add to his golfer wardrobe.
B Draddy has all kinds of golf apparel that looks good on and off the golf course. Polos, pullovers, shorts, boxers. There are even Juniors polos so the boys can match their dad! They use fabrics that are naturally aged by the salt of the ocean, so they have that worn-in, second skin feeling from the get-go.
He wore his B Draddy polos in a 3-day golf tournament a few weekends ago and got so many compliments. And shared some with his buddies! They are perfect for golf and also a nice dinner out in the summer when you need moisture wicking clothes.
Our young, stylish model
With clothing for tennis, golf, pickleball (!) and the gym, Zero Restriction makes awesome athleisure for men and women. I know this is a Father’s Day post, but I am loving the items they sent me as well. This jacket is the softest ever.
We’ve also been loving the Zero Resistance tops in the evenings as an extra layer when we are out and about or at home with joggers. They are polished yet so soft and cozy!
His + Hers!

Here are even more ideas:
Untuckit Shirts
T has a few of these shirts at our local shop and they are a perfect fit!
Untuckit shirts have that just-right length (hence the name), come in different fits for all shapes and sizes, and look sharp while still being casual. If you don’t have a store you can visit, you can also find Untuckit shirts on Amazon.
J.Crew Boxers
Some men just really need a woman to buy them the essentials. These are Thomas’s go-to!
OXO Meat Thermometer
Does your guy like to grill? This OXO meat thermometer is little on the pricey side, but never fails us. It has a sleek look and an instant read. We use it year-round, but it gets a lot of love during grilling season.
Travis Matthew Hat
When they love something….Thomas has FIVE of these hats! (You might have seen Mazen wearing his oldest one!) T has a hard time finding hats that fit his head, so once he found this one, he never went back! In fact, he went from blue to black.
Yeti Colster
Yetis keep everything c-o-l-d, which makes this the best beer koozie around. It’s great for sparkling water and beer alike, especially on hot summer beach days! We also both have these coffee tumblers – best coffee mug ever (and we have tried a lot!).
Men’s Bombas Socks
Bombas are the best socks (I love them, too!). They come in all different styles, but the comfort is consistent with all the pairs we’ve tried. The men’s colors are so pretty!
Simms UPF Sun Shirt
This is what Thomas wears on the beach all week. It’s flowy and cool and he doesn’t need a bunch of sunscreen for a short trip out because it’s UPF 50.
Counterman Men’s Skincare
Beautycounter’s men’s line, Counterman, has been in and out of production, but I’m excited to share that 3 Counterman products are back – just in time for Father’s Day!
You can purchase the three items a la carte (Exfoliating Cleanser, Oil Free Face Lotion, Charcoal Body Wash) or as a Couterman Trio.
Thomas has been using the Counterman line since 2019 and he is a big fan. He likes all the scents (and he is picky!) and has good things to say!
UVA Decor
A bit more personal, custom gifts from Etsy are always fun. Thomas is a big UVA fan, so I’ve been eyeing some new décor for his office or dresser. I also found this Lego version of Scott Stadium which would be great for either Mazen or Thomas! I wonder how long it would take for Mazen to smash it….
Apple AirPods
Guess who put his old AirPods through the wash. Womp womp. He got the latest updated Apple AirPods – the noise cancelling ones – and they are awesome. The shape fits better than the originals, and the noise cancelling is superb. (Perfect for when he’s watching some sports movie on Netflix 🙂 ) And if your guy doesn’t have a Kindle yet, he doesn’t know how much he will love it until he has one! My father-in-law reads the newspaper on his : )
The Big Green Egg
You have one lucky dad if this is what you gift for Father’s Day because this is not a cheap grill + smoker! But of all the gifts Thomas has ever received, this is his all-time favorite toy. He got it for a combo birthday and Christmas gift a few years ago, and he uses every weekend – especially in the summer! He loves to smoke ribs, pork, and chicken, and sometimes we grill pizzas. FYI, his is the large size.
Costa Del Mar Sunglasses
T’s favorite sunglasses that he wears ALL of the time! If you’re looking for something less expensive, try Kohv sunglasses! Use code katheats15 for 15% off any order.
Gift Card to Golf Galaxy
If your partner is anything like mine, he loves golf with all his heart. I can never pick out what he needs (new gloves, balls, etc.), so I get him a gift card and he always loves it. Pair it with these funny golf socks!
Lululemon Men’s Joggers
I got T a gift card to Lulu for his birthday last year and he chose these joggers. They are his everyday around-the-house pants (and they look so good on him!) He also has a pair of the ABC pants and loves those, too. Annnnnddd some of the softest t-shirts ever!
What are you gifting the men in your life?
